Not long ago, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Turkey, killing and injuring many people and affecting millions.
However, after the disaster, Turkey's Schenak province faced an unprecedented disaster - pine caterpillar infestation. Pine caterpillars are crawling all over crop fields, house walls and stones outside, and residents are worried about the harvest and the environment. Seeing that the use of insecticides is ineffective, people are beginning to wonder about the cause of this "devastating" pest.
Pine caterpillars are reported to be the natural inhabitants of the forest. In normal times, they do not have a great impact on crops and other ecosystems, but when there is a small light environment that is unsuitable and natural enemies are reduced, disasters will occur.
The earthquake in Turkey's Schenak province laid the groundwork for the worm's ravage. According to scientists, earthquakes can have certain effects on certain ecosystems, such as earthquakes in the root system of soil-turning plants, which will cause more nutrients and sunlight for plants, which provides conditions for the proliferation of pine caterpillars and other pests.
In addition, in the past 3 years, the world has witnessed the new crown epidemic, but due to the epidemic of the virus, many countries have taken some anti-epidemic measures. For example, these countries have closed airports, ports, or outright suspended international trade. This has led to problems such as the environment and population migration in various places, as well as many problems such as health quarantine and ecological imbalance.
In this way, the imbalance between human beings and nature has become an inevitable fact. On the one hand, earthquakes and other human activities have led to damage to natural ecosystems and destruction of ecological balance. On the other hand, policy measures such as sanitary quarantine have also led to outbreaks and ecological imbalances.
Therefore, the fundamental way to combat pine caterpillar infestation is to strengthen the protection of natural ecosystems. Markets, transportation, extractive and other activities must be limited, follow the laws of nature, and not disrupt the ecological balance. We should attach importance to the ecological environment, strengthen habitat protection, and let human beings live in harmony with nature.
In short, while recognizing the problem, we must also take measures to protect the environment around us. Pine caterpillars are nature-endowed beings and must not disturb the ecological stability balance.
